Sheath Makers and Such of Blade Forums

ADVERTISEMENT

Hello everyone! Its time to put up a revised list of Sheath Makers and Such (Such will be defined soon) The new rules for crafty people require a "Knife Maker, Craftsman, Service Provider" membership in order to sell and advertise your wares here. Sparks rule, not mine, just to clarify.

So, in order to list yourself here at this time you need to upgrade your membership level to Craftsman. The Upgrade is very cheap advertising, and also gives you permission to sell in the exchange as well.

I apologize for the stir up, but things change and evolve, and we think this is an evolution in the right direction.

I specialize in traditional and tactical sheaths for most modern fixed blades and axes including Becker, Esee, Busse and Kin, Fallkniven, Survive!, Cold Steel, Gransfors Bruks, Bark River, Tops, Ontario, Ka-Bar and more. Feel free to click the link in the signature to be taken to the website. I have the largest availability of sheaths and options that you can order on the web.

New Guy

New guy here. I've seen a lot of the forums here in the past 7 years. I do all of Todd Davison's knife photos. Made a few knife sheaths for those a few years back and now I'm going try and make a few to sell.
Specialty - Custom leather Pocket Knife Sheaths & Cases. Each sheath is made from scratch. I line most of them with deer skin or some other nice material. And I hand lace the edges. I'm no Paul Long but I hope to get better with my tooling.Wish me luck ..... Thanks!

Hi there I am Levi Graham and offering services to make rawhide Frontier style sheaths. I can do do simple and plain or heavily decorated sheaths. Email me for any ideas or questions for what you are looking for. You can look at my work at levigrahamknives.com Thank you.

Name same as my forum name, Gary W. Graley, probably better known as G2 on most forums as well.

Leather work

Folder sheaths only

All are formed tightly to the knife for a good friction fitup, so, these would not be sheaths for your Safe Queen knives, they are for using knives.
Also not all knives work well in my style of sheaths so I'd need to see the knife in the closed position to see the contours.

Ferro Rod fire steels- these can have a leather (stacked washer) handle, wood, micarta or g10.

Black Magic strops- these are inexpensive, but very effective strops loaded with your choice of abrasive, or bare. They feature a backside slot that can hold abrasive paper to add further versatility to your portable maintenance solution.
Leather folding knife sheaths- These are molded to your knife for an excellent fit.

My prices start at $25 for a simple pocket slip up to $80+ for an exotic sheath (shark skin, snake skin, or most anything you can dream up, even chicken!)

Please contact me for in stock materials and lead times. I generally have several colors of dye and a few thread color options.

Note- I love to talk design so please don't feel that you are committing to anything by contacting me. I know that custom work is expensive, it's my goal to get an OMEGA Leather sheath or accessory into everyone's hands!

New!

Omega Leather Tuff Cuffs.

Cuffs are 100% custom. You can have one in any size or color. Standard leather with or without lettering or with exotic skin over the leather. Your choice of fastener (snap or stud).

Twenty five years experience as a professional leather craftsman, I am also a knife maker. Together my wife and I, make leather sheaths, holsters, leggings, rifle scabbards, purses, martingales, spur straps and much more. Check the website for a full selection of our products, all handcrafted by us. Our sheath designs are time tested, cowboy tough and durable. You don't have to be a rancher, they are perfect for hiking, camping, hunting, fishing and work too. They are compact, secure and comfortable. Everything is hand made, hand tooled and constructed from the finest materials. Herman Oak is used for sheaths, holsters, scabbards etc and various chap leathers are used for the purses and leggings. If you're needing a sheath for your knife, or heck, a knife and sheath give us a call. Spending too much time on BF? Check out the purses my wife makes. Get one for your lady and you won't be in trouble any more. Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy the pics.

Basket stamped Pancake Sheath and fully tooled wrist cuffs. Flower carved Pancake Sheath and Charmitas leggings.
Two Gordo Sheaths both basket stamped. Basket stamped Chinks on the left with initials and Charmitas on the right.

This guy was definitely in need of a new sheath for his knife. For larger knives, the Pancake sheath works very well worn in the small of the back, (SOB). Need a belt? We can help you with that too.

The Horizontal Sheath made in either a right or left hand version to be worn cross draw. Compact, secure and you'll forget you're wearing it.

The Slotted Sheath. Extremely versatile, it can be worn 360 degrees on the belt.

For larger knives the Slotted Sheath works very well behind the hip with a butt forward draw.

1911 Holster in basket stamp, (can be made with or with out safety strap) and our Rangeflap Holster in partial basket stamp.

One advantage of our Rangeflap holster is that while made for a specific gun it will fit several you might have. The Rangeflap holster is completely leather lined. Detail of the tooling on a 1911 holster.
